I would imagine that most, if not all, of the "set the clock back to 1800" campaigners in America are fundamentalist believers of one kind or another. Why else would you think like that? How else could you justify it? I just meant that they are a minority, but most people who dont think about things, or dont have time to, acquiesce to their insanity because they have never been told that it is OK not to. The fundies have monopolised the debate about 'morality' so effectively that if you dont start with "Im a Christian..." then everyone thinks you have nothing to say on the subject. To my mind, the whole virginity thing in America is just the last pathetic, shrivelled vestigal remains of the same anti-female culture that results in horrific torture and death in less developed countries. And not the only one.
